All Good Things Come To An End


I've been in a relationship for a year and ten months now. It's my first relationship and as much as I want it to be perfect, there's a saying that goes like my blog post title and we can't deny the fact that it can be true. Don't get me wrong, I'm breaking up with him not because we cheated or because the absence of love. No. I'm going to break up because I am disappointed of the relationship and him as my boyfriend.

The ride was a little rocky lately. We would always quarrel and get into petty fights. And that's because he couldn't understand the word "special". All I wanted was for him to do something that would sweep me off my feet; something nobody has done for me yet; something that even after fifty years, I'd still remember.

I was actually waiting. Day by day I keep on telling myself that he'll come to understand the word and run an extra mile for me. 

Then Valentine's Day. 

Since he is my first boyfriend, as a girl, there's always something special going on heart's day. No matter how much a girl says it's corny and cheesy, but she still gets all mushy and still thinks it's sweet.

That's how I am. I expect something from my boyfriend. My friends keep on telling me that my heart's day is something to look forward to because I have a boyfriend and he's ought to do something special for me.

Then I keep quiet.

I don't know what my boyfriend has planned. We were together last Sunday and he told me he doesn't have money to splurge on the special day. I said, 'okay, no problem'. I do understand that he's having a hard time trying to save some bucks as he is finished with his college studies and still waiting for his board exam results. But still.. it's Valentine's. You can get something special in a cheap price.. or better, DO SOMETHING WITHOUT SPENDING A  LOT OF CASH.

He sent me a message as to where I would want to eat in the heart's day eve. I read through my cellphone and my mouth dropped. Why is he asking me this? It's ought to be a surprise. Then he asked me if the restaurant I suggested months ago is expensive or not. My eyes widened. Why is he telling me that he doesn't have enough money for our dinner?

You don't ask your date if you can afford the restaurant or not. You don't tell your girlfriend what your plans for tonight because it's supposed to be a surprise - even just for that day. You don't make your girl think like if you're gonna be on a date and if it's higher than your budget, she pays the half. NO! You don't do that.

But he did. My boyfriend did. 

I told him I'm not going on a date in the evening since my class ends at 8:30pm and I can't go home past 10. So we have to reschedule. He told me he'll wait outside school as he has a rose for me. YOU DON'T SAY YOU HAVE A ROSE!

My friends were teasing me about him having a surprise. I told them that he's waiting outside and I'm not gonna see him. They insisted that he has a surprise for me. I told them, "No, he has a rose for me." And the guy friend said, "He told you that? It's supposed to be a surprise!". I know right.

But then I still went out and saw him. He was holding a rose and he asked, "Do you wanna go out?" YES I WANNA GO OUT YOU IDIOT!  "No, I need to go home." And I took off without even bringing the rose with me.

It's disappointing to know that I've been receiving roses since high school up to now. With or without a boyfriend, my Valentine's is all but the same. Maybe if he had something different, I would've taken it and got on a date with him. Or maybe if he had given the rose in a different unique and oddly way, I would've taken it and my Valentine's would have been great. But no, he sticked to what he knew best - giving a rose without any twist. And I'm the bad guy for not appreciating it.

He never texted me since then. And I sent him a message awhile ago that we need to talk tomorrow. He asked, "Why, what for?" I replied, "Last talk. I'll drop by at 2pm." And he said, "Okay then. Bring my mp3, the charger, battery and usb cord."

That's not the only thing I'll bring. I'll bring everything you've given me and I'll give it all back to you.

He has the right to get mad because I didn't take the roses he gave me and never appreciated the effort of buying one. I wouldn't! That's his role as a boyfriend. I never asked anything from him. I never asked for his time. I don't even mind him not being with me in school everyday. I don't ask him to bring me to places. I don't even ask him to pay. I just asked him to make that one special day indeed special. Just once.

And he gets mad because I didn't thank him for his effort of buying a rose! A rose! Buying a rose! It is a big effort. He exerted a lot of effort in buying a rose! I thought it's the role of a boyfriend. But he thinks he ran an extra mile for buying a rose. How disappointing.

As much as I want this relationship to work out, I'm actually tired. Well,

BURRN!
Ta jia hao! I'm back, after some hibernation for months. Anyway, I'll be blogging again, and will try to find a good web hosting deal with some of my friends and be active again in the blogosphere. I've been really really lazy to do stuffs at this page and all.

So I just watched Easy A (credits to Bibar for downloading the movie). It's about a girl who lied about her virginity and was later labeled as a slut who sleeps around town while boys pay her stuffs like a gift certificate from Amazon, or Home Depot and sort so they could tell everybody they slept with her. Lesson?

Farewell, Dekaron
Dear Dekarians,

It is with deep regret that we inform you about the latest news regarding Dekaron SEA.

Gamehi, the developer of Dekaron/2Moons, has preterminated our licensing agreement for Dekaron SEA. Despite our numerous attempts to work out a migration process of all players to Dekaron Global, Gamehi has just recently informed us that they will not allow any player migration.

The developer’s official closure date for Dekaron SEA is May 8, 2010.

For the past year and 4 months, we here at mobiusgames have worked hard to ensure all of you have a truly exciting and action-packed player experience in Dekaron SEA. There has been a lot of effort behind the scenes in ensuring good server performance, cleaning up the game of hackers, and most especially trying to provide new content for this game title.

We would like to thank you for your support throughout this entire time. It has been an interesting adventure. We will surely miss it.

Please stay tuned for more updates as things develop.
Sincerely, 
Team mobiusgames



We, Dekarians are completely disappointed of Mobius’ inefficiency as gaming company. We’ve spent a lot of money, time and effort for our game characters only to know that you guys are closing down the game and won’t even come to an agreement that we migrate to Dekaron Global. I hope it’s that easy to just say goodbye to everything. Can we just please get our money back somehow? :( I will surely miss my character and my friends.




Dekarians, in Braiken Castle Dekaron SEA, rallying over the issue of the closure. If you guys can’t give our money back, at least keep the game alive as long as you can. After all, you guys are earning hundreds of thousands from the players. Don’t be such a bad ass. We are deeply broken hearted.


Dekarians, guilds like Templars, Pentagram, DragonKnights and everyone else gathered for their own PK wars versus everybody. We were all waiting for an update from Mobius, and they all promised to give us the Siege Tunnel where Siege/Guild Wars are held and we all held on to that. But then, they are closing down the game, so players had their own PK wars at Draco Desert. Azeon (Azure Knight) and I (Mikara; Segita Hunter) were checking the main areas of Dekaron to see what was going on. Standing beside the "wingers" are incredibly great.    This is one of the events where you want to be with them and shout the same cry.



MajesticSlasher (Incar Magician), was strolling around Loa Castle, checking what’s happening around. I heard from Draco that the #1 guild in Dekaron, Pentagram were having their guild photoshoot. So azeon and I went down there to see for ourselves. And there they were. They look so majestic! Most of the members got wings and they're on level 130+ and something with weapons +7 and +8. I super envy them. 


DISINFECTANT, majesticSlasher, azeon and miKara had their own photoshoot as a guild in Loa Castle. Others were absent. We will have another picture taking soon enough with the complete members. We're still trying to contact AminoAcid to complete the set. Too bad, I never completed my skills. It's such a heartbreak to say goodbye to my mage this early. Everyone’s still shocked and surprised.

I know to some this is just a game, but for us who dedicated our time, effort and allowance, this is a lot more. We gained friends through Dekaron that we know we will treasure forever. The game taught me how to be patient and how to persevere. It taught me that you can be someone other than yourself in the virtual world. And this really saddens everyone to say goodbye to their characters, their friends and even to the world they thought they fit in. Farewell, Dekaron. They say I should move on, but I know I won't. You're my second most favorite online game ever. Now, I'll try to migrate to Dekaron Global, but I doubt it. With all the DCs I got in Dekaron Sea, I wonder if I could last a minute in Global without DC. I shall be at Facebook everyday of my life. How sad.

13th
It's our 13th month today. I almost forgot. We were supposed to go out and spend the day together but since I'm your official-yaya-for-the-month-of-April-and-May, we decided to just see each other this Saturday. He just called and greeted me. I was like, "What? What greeting?". And he was like, "Aww, you forgot." Teehee. This is what one gets when she's not going to classes during summer. She forgets the dates!

Btw, I saw this at my tumblr dashboard. It is in Seoul Tower and called Locks of Love. You write your name and the name of the one you love in each locks, you put it on the fence and you throw the key away. It's like, you tied your destiny with him/her for the rest of your life, unless you found the key and unlock it. But really, this is sweet. This is like a promise to be together forever no matter what. I've always loved the concept of this. One day, I wanna go there, bring my own lock and lock away our names together. Ya know, just for fun. ;) I still got my thing on prayers.  Two years away from Korea. I can't wait to go back!


Bloggers, can you help me with my comment page? I can't seem to find the right code. I'm really getting stressed out. I got the code here and I edited my layout already, but the comment link is redirecting to nowhere. I don't know what to do anymore. Please do help me. Pretty please. Just send it at my contact form. Oh please. :(

Buttercup!
I just got my new puppy from Mom's friend and I decided to give it to my boyfriend. His Mom has been asking me for a dog for a few months now and finally, the long wait's over. I delivered him my little Buttercup and it was really cute to look at Manuel holding the puppy like a baby in his arms. Then he whispered, "This will be our baby." I laughed. Oh come on, seriously dude. So I gave him all the dos and don'ts and if something goes wrong, I gave him my veterinarian's number and address. His Mom's a doctor so no worries, I guess.

Last night, as I was browsing through my Facebook friends' accounts, I saw this video of someone called "Lady Gagita" and she was pretty famous among my Facebook neighborhood. I clicked this link and I found myself laughing for a minute and two. She's damn hilarious yet the improvisation on the video was damn good. :D And.. I was horrified to find out that this gorgeous friend of mine at Facebook is one of the Jejemons! She was "jejemonizing" all over her wall and I was tempted to post a comment about her being a Jejemon. But I somehow think it would hurt her, I'll just tell her when we see each other one of this days. 




Oh Paris, when will I ever set foot on your wonderful place? Paris is my dream destination together with my future partner in life. I dream of visiting the Eiffel Tower. I dream of going to Louvre, I dream of kissing under the rain in the streets of Paris, France. Ohhh. I can't wait to get rich and buy a ticket for two to Paris, France. Then I shall visit all designer stores and attend a fashion show. I shall take pictures of every thing! I shall go drink a coffee over there parks and throw a coin and wish for something good in life in one of its many wishing fountains. I shall ride through a bike to explore the city in a summer white dress and a cute hat. I shall walk the streets of Paris holding hands with him. I shall drink wine and laugh. I dream of getting there before I get old.. before I die. I dream of being proposed by at Paris with Manuel. I can dream. Right?

Second stop would be Greece. Like when I was in elementary, I was really addicted to the Greek Mythology. I bought a book worth 350php and back at elementary, 350php was big enough to cover up my 3 week allowance. Arggh. I would read all the stories, watch Greek mythology movies and I even draw gods and goddesses with different styles of gowns and color each one of them. I was a total Greek geek! Then one time, I saw this Odysseus film and one of the scenes was shoot at this spring or spa or whatyamacallit infinity pool over a mountain fronting the open sea of Greece. It was just amazing. I plan someday to visit that place. And also the temples - each temple of Greece! :)

And third dream destination would be Egypt. If you want to see something majestic, go to Egypt. Egypt has a rich culture and a very dominant one. It's like it was where everything started. Like from medicine to transportation to a great civilization. I was fascinated by their history and culture. If I was impressed of Greek's mythology, I was more impressed by Egypt's royalty and religion. Their dominance was just awesome. Like, the Romans captured Egypt and usually, the captive are changed by the conqueror's system, society and way of life -- but it was the other way around. The Romans were dominated by Egyptians and their culture that they learned how to mummify themselves in a way as the Egyptian's. 

And yes, these 3 places are the greatest in the world. Maybe they're not famous for party clubs, fame and glamour, but it tells a lot more.. to how and what the world was when it was young. The point of this post? Nothing. I just really want to share it with you.

How about you? Do you have your dream destination(s)? :)

Why don't you mind your own business?
WARNING: This entry is all about bashing. I am apologizing to the people involve, especially to the owner of the photo used to complete this entry all in all.

People don't get it why these kids take a picture of them with empty Starbucks tumbler. They keep on telling that these kids are so "proud" that they could buy an expensive frappe from Starbucks. They even label them as "social climbers". And I wonder why? Is Starbucks that expensive? I honestly don't think so. Their prices are a little "expensive" from the other coffee shops because it tastes good. You are buying for the quality.. and buying a coffee/frappe from Starbucks doesn't mean that you're being a social climber. I guess that's really rude to say. Taking pictures with empty Starbucks tumbler is like taking pictures with your most favorite shirt or even your favorite actor. It's famous, we all know that. It's like when you see someone famous, for sure, you'd go get your camera out and take a picture of yourself with her/him/it no matter what it/she/he looks like. It has the same concept as that. Now for some reason, I don't know why people keep on making a fuss about it. Even Miley Cyrus got a picture of Starbucks coffee in her hands. And let's face it, 90% of us don't really like her, but she's famous and that doesn't exclude her from taking a picture with the famous coffee drink tumbler. Does that make her a "social climber"?

Let's just mind our own business. Let these kids do theirs and you should do yours. There's reaaaallyyyyy nothing wrong about taking pictures with Starbucks tumblers and frappe -- even if it's empty. And let's say, what if it's intentional? What do they convey? Even if they want the whole world to know that somehow they afforded to buy a Starbucks drink, it's not really your business. Cause they don't meddle with yours if you take a picture of yourself in front of your own mirror, right? So I guess, you people should be the one to fuck off. You have no right to belittle or bash these people. Maybe it's not your thing, but it's theirs, so if you have nothing to say, go shut up. You don't need to get out of your way, taking your time off just to get these people's pictures with Starbucks on their pictures. But then again, I guess you're that hateful. :)

GLEEK
I am a GLEEK, and I'm proud of that. This is one hilarious and yet very interesting tv show. It's like High School Musical and 90210 combined. But much much better. I first discovered Glee through a friend of mine. She kept posting pictures of herself with her fingers in a letter "L" form, which I thought meant "Loser" or "Laban". Then everyone started changing their pictures with this letter L on their forehead and it made me so curious. So I searched for it in the web and found Glee. Then I started downloading the episodes on torrent until I found out StarWorld airs episodes of Glee every Wednesday after American Idol. Great shows, back to back.

After awhile, I got tired of downloading the episodes so I looked for some pirated dvds of the show's compilation from Season 1 to I think Season 3. It was awesome. Every night, just before I go to sleep, I watch an episode from the dvd and it's just awesome! Now, my dvd's having a vacation at my boyfriend's crib. He's in love with Quinn. Aww. :) Haha!
